This was a 1958 model and the original Seventeener probably had a 70 degree CRT, making for a deeper cabinet. I have two of these and a Seventeener III from 1960, with a 110 degree deflection CRT.

I have two of these now: one with the white alligator skin and another that is off-white. Both need some caps and as always, some troubleshooting afterward to fix what originally was wrong.

I found a Kodak yellow model at a local antique store for $25 and in as fine shape as your salmon colored one. I recapped it and it made a nice bright picture but I could not get the horizontal sync stable. I sold it at a swap meet for $40.

Here is one that was a popular model but without the rabbit ears handle https://philadelphia.craigslist.org/clt/6109362732.html
